I just love it! Hallie decided it was time to get married. She gave herself a year to have a husband - though she wasn't even dating. Her college friends (some of them) were working on their second marriage and she had started her own business and worked to build it up. The story is a riot of horrible dates. A great laugh by Macomber!

Entrepreneur Hallie McCarthy holds her sister's newborn in her arms and immediately decides that she needs to get married and have some babies of her own. But Hallie finds that her business savvy doesn't help her in her search for love, and her plan falters. Luckily, sweet and sensitive Steve Marris lives right next door, and he may be just the man to open her eyes to a new way of loving.
